Op are you asking or . . . ? I'm sure you heard the last export were rejected in the UK for being substandard? Go to the market and ask the price of an average tuber of yam. You'll understand why the Senator made that statement. 18 Likes 1 Share |

Why wont we support him, you should export the excess of what you produce or as trade by barter, APC is desperate to put up a facade of its Agricultural 'revolution' yielding results that they mop up yam tubers in the local market and send to America, spending more on media advert than the profit they hope to make from the export. Indians and Lebanese merchants are in Plateau and Mambila areas planting Irish potatoes and processing same for our local and regional supermarket chains and targeting west African markets while our Govt and citizens are busy making a mockery of ourselves with yam and Ugu exports we dont have enough. I just watched the viral video of the school feeding programme where primary school kids are fed with N50 bread to 4 pupils, why not substitute the bread with the available yam if we think we have enough yams. Let us start by targeting African markets, when we improve we can can then look for markets in Europe and America which imposes more stringent conditions on every import that comes into their countries. 70 Likes 6 Shares |

His English was bad but he made a lot of sense. Why export when the one we have isn't enough...that would just drive up the price of the little yam remaining and greatly affect the masses. 13 Likes |

Other countries are exporting their surpluses while Nigeria is exporting the food meant for her people all in the name of ''export'' and ''foreign exchange'' thereby leaving her people in hunger. It is well. 19 Likes |

The lawmaker is wrong. What he should emphasize on are 1) Produce yams that meet international standards. 2) Grow more yams for both local & foreign consumption in order to boost our dollar inflow. 3) Process that yam into much useful products that can boost our dollar inflow. Nigerians keep blabbing about diversification of their economy without understanding what it means. Yam exportation is one means to diversify the economy. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Audu Ogbe should be facing charges for attempt to orchestrate food scarcity during a biting recession , he myopic and poorly thought out plan to export scarce yam in a shoddy manner which saw a major harvest of yam get rejected by the Europeans and the all ended up rottening and causing a scarcity of yams in the open market for locals 6 Likes 1 Share |

SalamRushdie: Banning exportation of yam is wrong. We should work on meeting international standard and increasing quantity through our local farmers in order to help some unpaid civil servants who have farms to raise money for themselves. 4 Likes 1 Share |

zoeshalom: You are wrong. We should approach the countries we intend to export to and ask them the type of yam they want and if possible, collect the specie from them and mass produce them in Nigeria in order to help States increase their IGR. The states can then be told to partner with local farmers to increase their export so that not only will they increase their IGR but some unpaid civil servants can generate money from the yams they export through their state governments. 7 Likes 1 Share |

You can't give what you don't have in exchange of money. We are hungry and We need the yam badly .we cannot export our farm produce when we don't even have it in abundance. Nigerians should see reason with the senator and stop the exportation of yam garri and beans before we starve to death. 1 Like |
